Oh no. Time to find out whether nearly 2 weeks in holiday mode is a help or a hindrance 😬. Newark Half Marathon @RunThroughUK

And on the 4th morning of her holiday, she finally got up for a jog before her enormous breakfast 🫡 . 268 metres ascent in 26 degrees ☀️🫠

💃.
@mullallyl Studies show moderate coffee intake (1.5-4.5 cups/day) links to ~30% lower mortality risk. Yorkshire Tea, a black tea, offers similar perks: 2+ cups/day may reduce death risk by 9-13%, per UK Biobank data. Both contain antioxidants aiding heart health. Enjoy responsibly!.

Shit shit shit I am doomed. “Tea bags release thousands of microplastics per cup”.

90 mins “easy” ✅ . The hardest thing about that run was finding the time to do it among the myriad other things I had to do today 🤪. Put my kit on at 9am and made it out only 9 hours later 😆

Really not a fan of 12-min intervals at (my slightly arbitrary idea of) “threshold” pace 🥴 I’d rather do faster 1K efforts any day. But the ol’ VO2 has entered uncharted territory! 😎 🏃♀️

Enjoyed that 👍 Apart from encountering other joggers too cool to return any kind of greeting 👎 (I always wave and smile as well as saying “hiya” in case they can’t hear!). 151 miles for July 🏃♀️

Just ran the last mile of my jog clutching a massive courgette. Someone was giving them away as I went past but I instantly regretted taking it, especially as it got all sweaty 🙁 Felt like I was in some kind of ridiculous relay 😂

Just ran a 10K (and a 5K) PB, sandwiched between two jogs! 🤓 Maybe the “sandwich” is the way forward?! A nice end to a pretty lazy week. Can’t wait for mi roast dinner 😋 🍷

Mine likes playing Snake on his little Nokia, seems to appreciate that it’s not enormous like his friends’ smartphones, and is glad he’s not party to the spats on the Y6 WhatsApp group 👍.
Bought my 11yo a Nokia ‘brick’ prior to her starting 2ndry school. The children are delighted. “It’s just like a smart phone - you can play games, send messages, make calls - it’s brilliant!” 🤩 . But they can’t view porn or beheadings, so I’m pleased too. 👍. Small things.

RT @guymiscampbell: Promotion of @NeilDotObrien to Shadow Cabinet is long overdue. One of the sharpest thinkers around, absolutely lovely….

This involved 15 x 400m intervals that were meant to be done at 10K pace but I ran faster to get them over with. I tried to run 6 of them within 90 seconds but managed only 3 🤪. Once again I could’ve done with a drink so resorted to roadside blackberries 🙈😆. VO2 Max at 60👌

Did not enjoy that trail jog. Jumping dogs, long grass & sticky, heavy mud. Felt tired, hungry & thirsty & had nothing with me 🥴. Instead of giving up on the planned distance I sacked off the time & stopped at every blackberry bush to fill my face, however long it took 😋

Hi @easyJet I am checking in for flights and there are no seats available on our return flight to ensure that either of our under-12 year-old children can sit even near one of us. What will you do about this?.
